Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 22,233 European ancestry cases, 64,762 European ancestry controls; replicated in 56,682 European ancestry cases and controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.07 times the odds of Coronary heart disease (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.09); p = 9 × 10⁻¹⁰.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 37% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p13.3 — in an intron of SMG6.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Coronary heart disease. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Coronary heart disease. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Coronary heart disease. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1231206

What is rs1231206?

rs1231206 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SMG6 gene. Published research associates it with coronary heart disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1231206 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Coronary Artery Disease. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1231206 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs1231206 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:21378990. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
